Gold Lode Claim #1, MGM, near Custer, South Dakota. 20.66 acres, 1500 x 600 feet. Forest Service dirt road access to claim. Old workings. Tailing piles. Lots of Quartz veins on the claim. A famous old claim. Rather secluded area. Discovery dates back to about 1899. Underground workings are gated/barred or capped by USFS but could be reopened. The largest gold nugget in the southern black hills was found here in ____. Was heavily worked, the area was remediated many years ago. There's still MORE gold here..... We took a number of samples that we plan to have assayed independently over the winter. If they come back like I think they will, this price on this claim will likely go up considerably. This one right now should be priced at $15k-$25k. Old photos and description were published in 1904. More info coming soon.
Recorded with County & BLM with filed BLM serial number.
